You're Out Daddy

Chapter 617

Chapter 617

Over at DX Group, the shutter of an inconspicuous factory rolled down as a car pulled inside.

Subsequently, two men alighted from the vehicle.

“Let's go,” Dave said, looking at Kenneth.

The latter pondered for a moment and eventually followed behind him.

They then entered an elevator, and after Dave placed his finger on a fingerprint scanner, the elevator began to descend.

“Well? Does it feel familiar?” Dave asked.

Kenneth shook his head in response. “There have been some big changes, but I'm surprised you guys retained the location of the base.”

“This place holds a sentimental value for everyone. That's why we didn't move.”

At that, Kenneth buttoned his lips.

“We're all awaiting your return,” Dave voiced.

Once again, Kenneth glanced at him but said nothing.

It was then the elevator came to a halt.

As the doors slid open, a modern and hi-tech place soon came into view. It formed a stark contrast to the exterior of the factory.

There was an abundance of workstations and computers scattered throughout the space, and multiple screens were hung on the walls.

Most importantly, ten or so people stood outside the elevator.

Kenneth was stunned to see them.

Conversely, Dave quirked the corner of his lips into a smile and said, “Let's go.”

Slowly, Kenneth stepped out of the elevator.

The faces that were once familiar to him turned to look in his direction.

Just as he walked forward, they greeted him in unison, “Welcome back, Boss.”

Kenneth looked at them, not quite knowing what to say at the moment.

Thereafter, memories of the past began playing in his mind like scenes in a movie.

Dave stood aside and continued to look on in silence as Kenneth gradually made his way down the steps and arrived in front of the group of people.

A complicated look crossed Kenneth's eyes as he looked at them.

None of them piped up, merely exchanging glances with one another. Nevertheless, silence spoke volumes.

A moment later, a smile spread across Kenneth's face.

He took a step forward and enveloped the two men who stood at the front of the group in an embrace. “It's been a long while.”

Following that, the rest of them swarmed over and surrounded him.

“Boss!”

“Boss!”


They called out to him.

Looking at the men, Kenneth remarked, “Right now, I'm no longer your boss.”

“No, you'll always be our boss,” said the two men, echoing one another.


































































Gratified, Dave took in the scene with a smile touching his lips.

Kenneth continued embracing the men and only released them after a few moments. “How's everything? Are you all doing all right?” he queried.

“Everything's fine. We just miss you, that's all.”

“That's right, Boss. You finally came back to see us.”

“When one leaves DX Group, one may never return. That's a rule, and I can't break it,” said Kenneth.

“Dave got rid of that rule after you left. We've all been waiting for your return.”

Hearing that, Kenneth turned around to look at Dave. The latter arched a brow, explaining, “You know I'm not a stickler for rules.”

“You're being irresponsible toward DX Group.”

“You're right. I'm not a competent leader, so what do you say? Would you like to consider coming back and assuming your former position?” Dave raised a brow, evidently having no qualms about relinquishing his position to his former leader.

Words eluded Kenneth.

In the next second, the rest of the men began to cheer, “Come back, Boss!”

When Kenneth heard their shouts, he turned to look at them and replied, “Dave doesn't fancy the rule, but I was the one who made it a rule in the first place. Therefore, it can't be broken. I've left DX Group, and that's that.”

“Boss...”

“Also, I'm not your leader anymore. Dave is. You should all get used to that,” added Kenneth.

They stared at him, momentarily at a loss for words.

Just then, Dave stepped forward and chimed in, “I don't like it when they address me as 'Boss.' In my opinion, it sounds crude, and I'd much rather they address me by my name, Dave.”

“That's right! Boss, you're always going to be our boss, and Dave is Dave. Neither of you is replaceable. Isn't that right, boys?” one of the men who stood at the front of the group uttered.
